Hi list,

I have a problem with network connectivity on hardy alpha 4.
I configured my machine as a diskless system with roofs served via NFS.
This runs fine, but only if i remove S40hal from /etc/rc2.d.
As soon as S40hal get executed, the machine looses connectivity, thereby
loosing it's root fs and hangs.

Is there a way to keep HAL from touching network interfaces? I do not
want to disable HAL completely because of automounting removable devices.

Thanks for any help,

This is probably being caused by Network Manager, which is started from
the HAL scripts.. (sorry, I forget exactly what directory these are in,
but should be something that looks like /etc/hal, look for something
that looks like a an init script link, S##networkmanager, or you can
simply uninstall the network manager from your packages)
